Letter to Tan Zheng and Tao Zhu
(October 9, 1949)
Tan and Tao:
Your telegram of the 6th has been received. Mao Zelian and Li Zhuhua may be permitted to come to Beijing for a visit, but please make it clear to them that they are permitted only to come and take a look at Beijing and must then return immediately to the countryside in Hunan.
Mao Zedong
The 9th
